Father Taught Here

Technical School 1903 Ref: 50070
Technical School 1903
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

From 1944 to 1956 my father Mr. G. Pember was head of the Electrical Engineering Department of the Technical School, which was also known as the Harris Institute. I can remember going there only once, at the time of the Preston Guild celebrations of 1952, when he let me watch some of the processions from the steps on the photo. Others I watched from one of the upstairs windows.
